As with other series shelfmarked MS. Ch. and MS. Rolls, this is an artificial collection created from a range of archival sources, and the provenance of individual items is not always known.

The collection catalogued in 1878 comprised MSS. Ch. Dorset 1-5, of unrecorded provenance.

Ch. 6-25 are later accessions from a variety of sources.
